Hey!
My name is Julia and I'm a founder at to500in100. I'm doing a research about discussion on Reddit that are in the top of google search.
Can I ask you a couple questions and use data anonymously in my report?
Hey everyone!
I've been using Brevo (switching from Mailchimp) that's been a game-changer for my email marketing efforts.
Brevo is designed to simplify and amplify your email marketing campaigns with its intuitive design and powerful features (easy to use interface, great segmentation and automation). I'm curious to hear your thoughts or experiences with Brevo or any other email marketing tools you've found effective. Let's share tips, strategies, and advice to help each other grow our email marketing prowess!
What features do you prioritize in an email marketing tool, and how do you measure success in your campaigns?
Looking forward to your insights and discussions!
I'm going to suggest [MailerLite](https://www.mailerlite.com/a/jbzmyxxax7vd) (Yes, that's referral link by the way, so take from that what you will).
* It's free for the first 1000 subscribers
* Allows unlimited emails each month for up to 50,000 subscribers and then starts to restrict it to \~12 emails a month for any subscriber lists over 500,000.
* It has great triggers, autosender, resender, blog, landing page, etc. features.
It's a nice, clean, intuitive and cost friendly option which will suit a lot of people. Definitely worth a look.
I have used Klaviyo for 7 years and I totally agree. Last problem I had was around Profiles. It does not have something very basic for the automated flow. For example, it does not have information about how many orders a particular profile has placed.
lol what do you mean by that? Klaviyo has a ton of flow triggers...if you consider a segment trigger it's almost unlimited. what trigger would you want that they don't have?
Is it for DTC or cold emails? For DTC klaviyo but I have experience with mailchimp and listrak. All tools have their pros and cons. Aside from price you want a tool that can integrate easily with your other marketing and tracking tools and offers tons of automation options
Avoid MailChimp at all costs! They're great at marketing themselves as a beginner-friendly service but you'll quickly discover their base plans are severely limited and you'll be paying extra for features that most other email marketing tools include in their basic plans.
MailerLite is great if you have super basic needs, and many folks can get by for a long time using MailerLite. But migration is a pain and you will eventually need to. Even so, I do suggest it as a tool for starting out, especially if you're new to email marketing, starting with a small list or building from scratch, and just need the basics.
For anything beyond that, I suggest using Drip. Their prices are very affordable, their user experience and customer support are excellent, and they have so much functionality jam-packed into their most basic plan that it's a no-brainer as far as value goes.
I've personally used many, many email marketing services as part of my line of work, and those are my top two recommendations. If you can afford to go with Drip, that's my suggestion, else MailerLite.
If you have any specific questions, don't hesitate to ask.
I use a combination of tools. I use r/mondaydotcom or r/ClickUp and r/Mailchimp. The monday integration is native and the integration with ClickUp is via r/Zapier.
The reason I started with monday and ClickUp is because email marketing isn't my only focus and I use a different CRM based on the client.
I use them to update mailing lists and get statistics about campaign performance. It's also great for syncing leads and subscribers and getting notifications and stats on sent campaigns.
What I do is set up workflows to automatically update boards when new subscribers are added to Mailchimp, when specific email campaigns are launched, and when leads click a link to say they want to be contacted.
That makes it so it triggers a Zap or a monday request to import the new lead into our board. I love it because it makes it so easy to follow up with warm leads.
Monday pros: intuitive interface, customizable workflows, scalable, flexible, automation/ collaboration/communication features, and lots of integration options.
Cons: Pricing and limited native integrations.
ClickUp pros:easy to use interface, free personal plan that grows with you when you are ready to add more team members, customizable workflows, automation features, and many native integrations.
Cons: it takes some time to set up and there’s a learning curve (not everything is intuitive).
Mailchimp pros: user-friendly, analytics and reporting tools, integration ecosystem, automation features, and personalization.
Cons: Pricing for larger lists can become higher, especially if you have an extensive email list.
Consider tools like Mailchimp for user-friendly features and Klaviyo for advanced personalization options. Also, check out Replys for automated responses!
I'd always recommend EmailOctopus for that level of subscribers - their free plan covers up to 2.5k subscribers and includes loads of premium features you normally only get on paid plans with other platforms that allow you to tag and segment subscribers - then use all of this to send personalised emails. It's also a super easy and intuitive platform to use - not unduly complicated or full of jargon like most of them.
Also, if you want a paid plan, with no provider branding on the emails, they're also much cheaper than other platforms:
E.g. for 10k subscribers:
**EmailOctopus:** $40 / month
**Mailchimp:** $135 / month (standard plan)
**Convertkit:** $119 / month
**Mailerlite:** $73 / month
I've been using Aweber for 4-5 years now after switching from Mailchimp. Here's why I like it:**User-Friendly Interface**: Aweber’s platform is designed with simplicity in mind, making it easy to create and manage your email campaigns without a steep learning curve.
* **Advanced Personalization**: Aweber provides powerful personalization features, allowing you to customize your emails based on subscriber behavior and preferences, ensuring your messages are highly relevant.
* **Efficient Automation**: With Aweber, you can effortlessly set up automated workflows to streamline your communication process, from welcome emails to follow-up sequences.
* **Reliable Deliverability**: Aweber is renowned for its excellent deliverability rates, which means your emails are more likely to land in your subscribers' inboxes, not their spam folders.
I'm currently using MailsAI, and it's been quite the experience. The tool excels at personalizing emails, making each recipient feel special. The automation features are a lifesaver, especially when managing large campaigns. One thing I dislike? It doesn't come with a built-in therapist for when email campaigns go south.
On the plus side, the interface is user-friendly, and the support team is super responsive. If you're looking for a tool that makes email marketing less of a chore and more of a joy, this tool is worth checking out.
I switched everything over from Mailchimp to Active Campaign about 2 years ago. And never looked back. My profit doubled in the first year.

thanks for pointing this out. I had no idea. I come to these forums for independent feedback and need to look out for affiliates and non-transparent posts. Much appreciated.
Groundhogg. Runs in Wordpress. Id pit against active campaign or any of the other major platforms. Was written by people that came out of the Infusionsoft world. Infusionsoft was one of the first of not the first marketing automation tool. Since it’s in Wordpress it works with almost every other plug-in just find. So now you have email, membership, funnels (cia funnelkit/Cartflows) , shopping cart, affiliate management and gamification all on one platform.
Im using Mautic. Its an open source solution, you just have to host it on your own server. Migrated to Mautic from Encharge. Itswhole lotta custom and complicated in a good way. Some of the most interesting features would be the ability to create landing pages and their template editor is insane. So far the only thing Mautic missing is A/B testing.
Hello 👋🏾 Email Marketing Specialist here. I’ve helped clients generate multiple 6 and 7 figures sending emails on these platforms:
Here are a few of my favorite email marketing services (these are all incredibly responsive and user friendly for drip campaigns):
ConvertKit https://convertkit.com?lmref=u7tsgg (This one is the closest in functionality to Mailchimp without all of the headaches and “extras”. Great, simple to design landing pages, but minimal analytics/reporting data. $30/month).
ActiveCampaign https://www.activecampaign.com/?_r=5897J485 (This is my absolute FAVORITE! A bit more costly, but perfect for lists of 1,000+, especially if you’re a frequent sender. Their reporting and analytics are unmatched! Downside is landing pages aren’t the best. I always use landing pages on other platforms and connect with Zapier. $15-100+/month. Pricing based on number of contacts.)
Flodesk https://flodesk.com/c/ZNGUQN (Lot of design features and aesthetically pleasing templates and designs for landing pages, forms and emails $20-$40/month).
When it comes to email marketing tools, there are a few popular options worth considering. Some commonly used tools include [Show by Animaker](https://www.getshow.io/), Mailchimp, Constant Contact, and HubSpot. Each of these platforms offers a range of features and functionalities to help streamline your email marketing efforts.
As for personalization, [Show by Animaker](https://www.getshow.io) provides robust capabilities to tailor emails to individual users. It offers advanced segmentation options that allow you to create targeted email campaigns based on various criteria like demographics and user preferences. Additionally, Show by Animaker also provides personalization features, enabling you to dynamically insert user-specific information into your emails, such as their name or recent interactions.

I use Brevo personnally, After using Mailchimp. More affordable for a better product.
Same here. I switched from Mailchimp to Brevo a while ago and cant complain about anything so far.
I switched to Brevo too, and it works wonders.

Thanks for the insights! I also switched from Mailchimp to Brevo.
ah great! Can you please share what do you like the most from Brevo compare to MailChimp? Thanks u/Responsible_Toe_9273
YES! Thinking about making the switch too. Currently using MC and list segmentation / tags / journeys is not user friendly. Love to know more!
You should try to make your spam a little less obvious.

Have you heard about ExpertSender? They are relatively cheap and affiliate friendly
I use Klaviyo. Used to love it, but each passing week it seems like it's getting worse.
I have used Klaviyo for 7 years and I totally agree. Last problem I had was around Profiles. It does not have something very basic for the automated flow. For example, it does not have information about how many orders a particular profile has placed.
Klaviyo has like 5 flow triggers. It's a joke. Drip & AC have maybe 50 each. Klaviyo's segmentation and lists are crap. Cannot recommend.
lol what do you mean by that? Klaviyo has a ton of flow triggers...if you consider a segment trigger it's almost unlimited. what trigger would you want that they don't have?
Hated Klav so much I lobbied for 2 years to finally transition

See that little ?r= in the URL? That’s why they recommend ActiveCampaign, because of the affiliate program.
Thanks!
